Mastered regenerative braking

One-pedal driving isn't just convenient — it adds 10-15% range and saves thousands on brake pads.

Aggressive regen means you rarely touch the brake pedal. Your brake pads can last 150K+ miles. The trick: anticipate stops and lift your foot early. In hilly terrain, regen on downhills can nearly offset the energy used going up. Many drivers never go back to two-pedal driving.

How many of these have you done?
